Abstract

The article explores pre-and in-service teachers' perceptions of how unequal power relations contribute towards the spread of HIV and AIDS. The sample, consisting of 19 teachers; 6 pre-service teachers from a Higher Education Institution and 13 in-service teachers from a rural primary school shared their views, through the use of tableaus, on how power relations between males and females contributed towards HIV and AIDS.The findings, emerging from the teachers' tableaus, demonstrated that they were aware of how gender identities contributed towards HIV and Aids.
